Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all the women out there!  I hope you had a wonderful day!!  I loved spending time with my family and getting pampered for the day.

Hubby & Turkey got up before church to make me banana-chocolate-chip pancakes with fresh-squeezed orange juice.

At church, my kids made little cards ... it was more like a questionnaire.  Each of my kids answered 5 questions about me.  With kids this age, answers are always funny and interesting....

1. What is your mom's favorite food?

• Penguin: angel hair pasta with marinara sauce
• Peacock: Pancakes & Doughnuts (I think these are HER favorite foods.)
• Turkey: Chocolate chip pancakes (hmmm... I'm seeing a theme here)

2. What is your mom's favorite chore? (Does such a thing exist??)

• Penguin: Watching Kids
• Peacock: Clean the house
• Turkey: none

3. What is your mom's least favorite chore?

• Penguin: Cleaning
• Peacock: Clean the house
• Turkey: make pancakes

4. What is something your mom always says to you?

• Penguin: I love you, too.  Now get in bed.
• Peacock: Clean your room.  I love you.
• Turkey: cereal

5. What is something your mom does just for YOU?

• Penguin: drives me to activity days
• Peacock: makes hot chocolate
• Turkey: school work

At church, all the girls & women age 12 & up got to have an hour of socializing while we ate cheesecake and the men took the all the kids.  Heavenly!! After church, I got a delivery of flowers from Hubby's boss thanking me for all the sacrifices that I make that in turn helps them run a great office ... very thoughtful!  Hubby & the kids also got me flowers .... and chocolate goodies ... and a gift card to eat out ... and a fun new toy.  After an afternoon of resting, we had a nice dinner with Hubby's family.
